Hi Elvanto,

We have several long term foster children (permanent guardianship) in our church whose last names differ from their foster parents (guardians). How can I tag them so that they are included in an 'add family' action?

Cheers,

John

Hi John,

Thanks for the post.

For some reason it got marked as Spam... very odd!

When you're using 'Add Family' from the People area, you can simply change the last name for the children as you're entering the details, as if you were editing one of the other fields.

When you're using 'Add Family' from the check-in area though, this currently isn't possible. You'll have to add them using the same last name and later go in and edit their last names to be the correct lastname.
